Has anyone else ever asked for the ability to mask bytes in incoming messages?
Currently, when a control is configured to send a SysEx message, it can also be manipulated from afar by returning the exact same SysEx message. This is great, because you can use the control not only to change a parameter in the target device, but to query the device and ask it to return its current parameter value to be displayed on the same control.
But sometimes the "exact match" condition is hard to meet in certain cases, and it would be nice if I could ask MIDI Designer to settle for an "almost exact" match by ignoring one or more of the return bytes. So underneath each outgoing byte you could have a check box that says "ignore this byte" in the incoming direction and display the V variable even if this bye doesn't match.
I know this is pretty obscure -- but you never know! Thought I'd ask.
